NEW YORK — Right-hander Yohan Ramirez was acquired by the New York Mets from the Chicago White Sox for $100,000. The 28-year-old was 1-0 with a 4.23 ERA in 31 games last season for the Pittsburgh Pirates and the White Sox, who claimed him off waivers on Sept. 5. He struck out 35 and walked 17 in 38 1/3 innings. He was designated for assignment on Dec. 13 to open a roster spot when the White Sox finalized a $15 million, two-year contract with right-hander Erick Fedde. Ramirez is 6-4 with six saves and a 3.99 ERA in four big league seasons.
